Greetings,
I’ve installed Fedora Linux (with pipewire) on my friend’s Alienware M17xR4 (linux-hardware probe).
This incredible laptop got a Sound Blaster Recon3Di with a S/PDIF Digital Output which unfortunally does not work out of the box. I can see the vu meter moving inside gnome-control-center but no audio comes out and the port’s red light (which on Windows lights up) does not turn on at all.
By lookin up I’ve found this thread on Linux Mint Forums but I had no luck with it.
Has anyone else got issues with similar hardware? Thanks in advance.
Just tried PopOS live and it works out of the box, but I would like to understand why and fix it on Fedora.
Take a look at my other comment for screenshots.
